Noctur is an experimental film that explores the structure (ludens, rules, triggers, avatars) of video games as an element in the construction of non-linear narratives in cinema.

Synopsis
A camera that wanders the urban streets at night, giving an alien quality to the territory that is shown to us. A performance that can be both dance or bodybuilding. A world of futuristic weapons and painted faces. This is Noctur.
